ASUSROG Strix G15 (2022) Gaming Laptop, 15” 16:10 FHD 144Hz, GeForce RTX 3050, AMD Ryzen™ 7 6800H/HS, 16GB DDR5, 512GB PCIe SSD, Wi-Fi 6E, Windows 11, G513RC-ES73, Eclipse Gray

This thing is giant and heavy like a sack of bricks, but if you're looking at gaming laptops you know that's how they are. This is ridiculously fast in person. Even compared to other high end, fast pcs, this blows them away. I find the rgb effects to be very nice on this one as well. The keyboard works well and keys have good action, the screen is beautiful, the sound quality is good.

Upgraded from 6800H/3070Ti and it’s been great, even for unoptimized games like Tarkov and PUBG.Great performance and no heat problems whatsoever. As a desktop replacement it works extremely well, but weight might be a problem if you actually trying to carry this thing around with you.Appearance: solid black plastic, looks good, it had RGB lights all around is good if you’re into that. Personally I just put it on solid red. Which creates some ambient light but isn’t enough to illuminate the desk or annoy you at night.Right now it’s definitely a better value for money than 4090 model.Really surprised how cold the CPU runs. I think I never got it higher than 85C. Fans aren’t very loud either.

Excellent performance, outstanding design, and considerately powerful cooling fans make this gaming laptop a good entry into the Gaming Laptop World. Although the RTX 3050 is obviously not the most powerful in the market, it should satisfy your craving for almost any game and allow you to reach the highest settings in those that are not too graphic-demanding. I've been using this laptop for half a year now and found no issues so far. For those that complain about some weird bugs and error such as the machine not going to sleep mode properly, there is a high chance that it's Windows 11's problem.

From the get, it has been fast and responsive. Playing CP2077 and other gpu intensive games, it does 60+fps with heavy settings adjustments and looks great. It's a low end, so screen quality and brightness are OK. The thing is built sturdy and so far use of turbo fans is nearly non-existent, being able to cool itself efficiently.Pros:-good entry for gaming-light up key board and active desktop makes it very colorful-intuitive settings for lighting-plays many titles wellCons:-not a ton of storage, fills up quick-wifi card is okay, streaming games could have better signal strength-battery will last 3, maybe 5 hours gaming "lightly"-no ability to expand storage externally with good integrity(no thunderbolt ports)-bluetooth devices are a little finicky at times. Will sync, but upon restart, will repeated connect and disconnect from certain devices. Having to unpair and repair to fix. No current driver updates for it.Otherwise, decent for a gift or small upgrade to something a little more powerfull then your typical console.

Really great as expectedDown side? YESThe day after I paid for it, price was reducedI could have canceled as it was being shipped, but I just swallowed it, not fun.Thanks

I believe this item to be used. I have uploaded pictures of the condition when I received it. The seal was broken. The unit had fingerprints and smudges on it, small scratches on back. The box was split down one side. And according to an unboxing video, it is missing the cardboard Asus welcome insert!!! I received a call back from support. After receiving no real reasonable response, I was told “Sometimes the units are opened for upgrades, but this should not have been the case with your unit.”In addition, the mini led’s are now messing up in strong zone mode. Artifacts, smears, and color banding. It is truly a shame. When this unit is in single mode or HDR it really is a beautiful screen. I just can’t accept an opened unit that has issues in multi zone mode. Especially if you are paying extra for that feature

This laptop won't dissappoint those who are looking for the best gaming experience. The screen shows color you might have never seen before on a monitor, and the 240Hz refresh rate gives a fluid experience great for competitive games.It's able to handle all use cases, from work to daily use. Every game and every application you download will be handled with ease, and you will never have to think wether you can run it or if it will slow down your PC.

This is a very nice laptop. The 18 inch HDR display can be too bright at times, but the color is amazing. At some point I may have to upgrade to a larger drive, but for now it's fine. I have had a problem controlling the lights on the keyboard. When I change the settings, they always seem to get set back to the default rainbow pattern after a while. But that's a minor issue.
